Thanks for the encouragement Randy. I especially like the list you wrote:
A. Engage with other users.
B. Produce content daily. This can be blog posts, videos or images.
C. Don't complain unless you have earned your stripes. I have told more than one complainer to quit if they don't like it.
D. Don't spam in anyway whether it is in comments, in the wallet or in Steemit Chat.
E. Be here even when the Steemit price suffers.
F. Never plagiarize.
G. Don't be a Jerk!
H. Have fun, we are changing the online world.
